Making printer default settings - the printer properties

To change the printer default settings including option configuration settings, log on using an account that has Manage Printers permission. Members of the Administrators and Power Users groups have Manage Printers permission by default.
You cannot change the printer default settings for each user. Settings made in the printer properties dialog box are applied to all users.

On the [Start] menu, click [Control Panel].
The [Control Panel] window appears.
Click [Printer] in "Hardware and Sound".
Right - click the icon of the printer you want to use, and then click the [Properties].
Make the necessary settings, and then click [OK].
